I have opened a Santander Edge Saver account and cancelled all my Edge Current account DDs. 

Can I pay £200 into my Edge CA and then transfer it to the Monthly Saver without triggering the monthly fee? if so, is there a work around for this, please/

Cancelling the DDs won't cancel the fee. Once the fee has been triggered once it'll continue every month whether the account has DDs on it or not. You either need to close it or change the account type to something else.

You don't need to tfr via the Current Account, pay directly into the Saver

I was trying to pay directly into my Edge Monthly Saver (max £200/pcm deposit) account from my non Santander account but I only have the 'R' number, how do I get around this?

Edge monthly saver? I take it you mean their Regular Saver account?

Sorry, I do not know what an"R" number is. The terms say that you can deposit money into this account using a Santander current account. Have you tried doing this?

It looks like you have a 5% Regular Saver rather than the 6% Edge Saver. 
The Edge Saver has it's own Account number, the Regular Saver has a Ref number.

I have a joint Edge Current account with an associated Edge Saver. I have just opened a sole Edge Current account but when I try to open another Edge Saver, it says I already have one and terminates the application. I thought you could have 2 Edge Savers, am I missing something?

You can have 2 Edge Savers - one associated with your sole Edge Current Account and one associated with your joint Edge Current Account.

Have you made a deposit into your in the new sole ECA eg £1? Is the new sole ECA showing up online?

If the answer to these questions is yes, maybe wait a day and if you still cannot open a second Edge Saver try chat or give them a call.

We have four Edge Savers (2 each) between us associated with one joint ECA and two sole ECA`s.

you can actually have 3 edge savers. You can also have one associated to a edge explorer current account.
